Steampunk in Jakarta

Lewis & Carroll in Jakarta is the latest tea lounge to install a Steampunk brewer.

Inspired by the works of C S Lewis and Charles Dodgson, alias Lewis Carroll (“You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me.” C S Lewis; “It’s always tea time.” Lewis Carroll), each tea is carefully chosen for its visual artistry and aromatic attraction and then is carefully prepared in the innovative tea-brewing Steampunk by Alpha Dominche.

In the UK, Good & Proper Tea Company is showcasing the machine in its new tea bar in London’s Shoreditch, while Teastories café in Vienna was the first European teashop to install Steampunk in May 2015.

The 1872 Clipper Tea Company is using the Steampunk in Singapore. Thomas Perez, c.e.o. of Alpha Dominche said, “Specialty coffee has been huge for years, while the majority of tea shops are still of the old fashioned teapot variety. In the past 12 months, we’ve seen the Steampunk elevate the craftsmanship of tea to an artisanal level.”
